[SOLVED] Type module in node js clound function

So you'll have something like that

TypeScript

...
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "type": "module",
  "main": "src/index.js",
...

TL;DR

The user is trying to use ES modules in a Node.js cloud function. They have changed all 'require' statements to 'import' statements and added "type: module" in their package.json file. However, they are still getting an error message stating that they must use import to load the ES module. Some users suggest downgrading the package, but it does not work. One user suggests changing the 'require' statements back and removing "type: module" from the package.json file. The user tries this solution but still gets the same error message. Another user suggests changing the first and second lines of the code to use 'import

ok I'll try that

Also you can change the second line to

TypeScript

const sdk = require("node-appwrite");
const { parseBuffer } = require("music-metadata");

But both solutions will do just fine

But according to music-metadata package:

The JavaScript in runtime is compliant with ECMAScript 2017 (ES8). Requires Node.js® version 6 or higher.

Yes I saw

is it still working?

Is this fixed the problem?

unfortunately , it doesnt work this is the new error I got:

TypeScript

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: Must use import to load ES Module: /usr/code-start/src/index.js
require() of ES modules is not supported.
require() of /usr/code-start/src/index.js from /usr/local/src/server.js is an ES module file as it is a .js file whose nearest parent package.json contains "type": "module" which defines all .js files in that package scope as ES modules.
Instead rename index.js to end in .cjs, change the requiring code to use import(), or remove "type": "module" from /usr/code-start/package.json.

Yes, sorry You need also to change the first line Try change the first line to this and test and lmn

TypeScript

import sdk from "node-appwrite";
import { parseBuffer } from "music-metadata";

And I try this also this is the error I got:

TypeScript

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: Must use import to load ES Module: /usr/code-start/src/index.js
require() of ES modules is not supported.
require() of /usr/code-start/src/index.js from /usr/local/src/server.js is an ES module file as it is a .js file whose nearest parent package.json contains "type": "module" which defines all .js files in that package scope as ES modules.
Instead rename index.js to end in .cjs, change the requiring code to use import(), or remove "type": "module" from /usr/code-start/package.json.

okok I'll try this one

Good

Yes, a bit confusing What I meant is if you change to this code

TypeScript

const sdk = require("node-appwrite");
const { parseBuffer } = require("music-metadata");

Then you need to remove the type:"module"

does not work

I think I am going to downgrade the pagkage

Have you try that? What error you got?

TypeScript

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: Must use import to load ES Module: /usr/code-start/src/index.js
require() of ES modules is not supported.
require() of /usr/code-start/src/index.js from /usr/local/src/server.js is an ES module file as it is a .js file whose nearest parent package.json contains "type": "module" which defines all .js files in that package scope as ES modules.
Instead rename index.js to end in .cjs, change the requiring code to use import(), or remove "type": "module" from /usr/code-start/package.json.

And you change all the require to import?

finally its work I just downgrade the package

anyways thank you for your time to assist me

god bless

👍

i want to use ES modules, i inserted type: module in package js, and changed all require to import statements, but still get the "Must use import to load ES" as above @Binyamin
